00:00:05.679 --> 00:00:06.799
Okay, so welcome to our podcast.
00:00:07.120 --> 00:00:12.880
This is a little bit different today because this podcast is a spin-off of our radio.
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:26.480
This is the Doctor and the DJ podcast.
00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:28.960
And our guest today, well here we have Dr.
00:00:29.039 --> 00:00:30.320
Carrie Bordinko, and I'm John J.
00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:30.879
Vanes.
00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:32.479
She's the doctor, I'm the DJ.
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:33.920
Not the other way around.
00:00:34.240 --> 00:00:35.920
You run what would you call Benesterra?
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:36.960
Wellness clinic, wellness center.
00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:37.600
Wellness center.
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:38.320
Wellness center.
00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:39.119
An amazing center.
00:00:39.359 --> 00:00:40.479
And I have a radio show.
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:41.679
That's the DJ part.
00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:42.320
And Dr.
00:00:42.479 --> 00:00:46.799
Rafael Gonzalez is here and Mero Chingón de la Playa is what I called you earlier.
00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:47.359
Behind.
00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:48.560
I didn't know about that.
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:52.000
I thought maybe that could be the way you get introduced uh from now on.
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:57.920
Um but right, Carrie, we wanted him to come here because there's all this stuff about stem cells.
00:00:58.320 --> 00:00:58.560
Yes.
00:00:58.640 --> 00:00:59.840
We were in the world.
00:00:59.920 --> 00:01:00.399
It's everywhere.
00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:08.319
One when we did a podcast um for the for you.
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:10.719
Yeah, for for my radio show, and it took off.
00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:11.680
It's humongous.
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:13.680
Uh it's on YouTube and on the radio shows.
00:01:13.840 --> 00:01:17.920
You can podcast it, download it on Apple and iHeartMedia, iHeartRadio.
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:29.040
Um, I think one of the one of the first things I like to get into, which I find so difficult to explain, because Carrie and I have been to the clinic to re-health in Cancun several times, had stem cells and NK cells.
00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:42.159
And when I tell people that in the United States, I can't seem to have the proper dumbed-down explanation for why stem cells at rehealth are different than the stem cells you can get here in the United States.
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:44.079
I don't have I don't know how to answer that.
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:47.280
Well, first off, you can't answer it in 15 seconds.
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.840
And most people want a 15-second soundbite about it.
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:55.120
And you know, honestly, you have to capture their attention for about 30 minutes and say, I need to give you a level of education.
00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:56.879
So there isn't an elevator response.
00:01:57.200 --> 00:01:58.799
There is not an elevated response to this.
00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:07.920
But actually, I think that there is somewhat of an elevator quick response is the correct stem cells and pure stem cells, you cannot do here in the United States.
00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:20.639
It essentially is growing and purifying the stem cells that is not allowed to do in the United States versus that term is very ambiguous with almost any tissue cell.
00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:23.919
People are telling you they're giving you stem cells, and they're really not.
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:27.120
In the United States, they're telling you they're giving you stem cells, but they're not.
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:28.719
I want to interject.
00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:42.800
There are clinics in many states, and I'm just gonna go with Arizona since we're in Arizona, that say they are able to give, and I'll quote, real stem cells like the kind you get in Mexico right here in Arizona.
00:02:42.960 --> 00:02:48.479
And I think that's the elevator speech John Jay's trying to go after, is how do you help people understand or vet?
00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:53.280
Because I, you know, I want people to know how to ask the right questions to be their own advocate.
00:02:53.439 --> 00:03:00.639
So, how do you give them the right questions to ask when they're sitting in front of a provider or a doctor at that clinic?
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:05.039
Because unfortunately, a lot of those clinics are not run by doctors, which is interesting in itself.
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:12.240
Um, and so how how can they, when they say, no, no, we do the same thing that rehealth does down in Mexico, exact same product?
00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:14.240
How do you help them understand the difference?
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:15.919
Number one, impossible.
00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:21.039
Um, and I would love to have a conversation with anybody that says that they actually do that.
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:25.360
Um, number two, it's because of the methodology and years of research that we've actually done.
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:33.520
Number two is I would tell for the regular individual out there, when you go somewhere and they tell you this, question one is where are they from?
00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:38.159
Question two is are they pure stem cells that you grew?
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:49.360
Because anybody can take a piece of this is what they actually do in the States here, a piece of tissue, whether it's amniotic tissue, whether it's placental tissue, whether it's umbilical cord tissue.
00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:51.919
And I'm not kidding you, this stuff goes into a blender.
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:53.120
It's called the homogenizer.
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:59.120
That sounds it goes into a blender, yeah, is what it does, disrupts all the tissue bonds.
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:11.039
They get a puree of it, then they may sort out and filter out some of the little tiny tissues and this kind of stuff, and there may be some cells there, but that process is so rough on tissue, you know.
00:04:11.120 --> 00:04:23.920
Think of the umbilical cord, you're breaking up a rope, it's essentially a rope, or it's just tissue in the radio, that it causes these enzymes in the body that are released, these are DNA's, there's other ones too, that cause cells to die.
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:36.319
So when you freeze the product, you would freeze it, and then when you thaw it, because of the vitrification process or the process that happens when you thaw something, the cells just basically explode.
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:42.079
Now, there may be some factors in there that have regenerative properties, but technically speaking, there's no real cells.
00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:59.199
That is something that's sort of called in the law's eyes in the United States, like a homologous use, meaning the same intended use of it, or point of care, where they're actually doing it right there in the spot, taking a tissue, breaking it up, then infusing it into.
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:11.040
But normally that's done in the context of I extract bone marrow from you, I extract fat from you, I do a quick centrifugation, I isolate, and I put back into you that same day.
00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:12.079
Your own stem cells.
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:13.040
Your own stem cells.
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:20.240
Now, even those are once again 0.00001% stem cells.
00:05:20.319 --> 00:05:22.639
It's like I've talked about this many times.
00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:27.680
Fishing in a sea of barracuda that has a million barracuda and you're catching one tuna.
00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:28.720
There's one tuna in there.
00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:30.560
That's essentially what you're getting.
00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:37.759
There might be regenerative factors in there, it might be beneficial, but it's not a true stem cell.
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:38.240
That's one.
00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:43.439
Two, in the United States, you are not allowed to IV any of this stuff.
00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:44.160
Wow.
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:46.079
That's the biggest difference, too.
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:48.240
Like when we go to your clinic, we get the IV.
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:49.120
You get an IV.
00:05:49.759 --> 00:05:50.480
You will get correct.
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:54.079
You will get pure stem cells that have been culture expanded, have been tested.
00:05:54.240 --> 00:06:02.800
Uh, one of the biggest issues here in the United States is the testing that's done on these types of disrupted tissues that are there that they have that they call stem cells.
00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:09.839
Because the initial tissue had stem cells, they believe they can call it this is stem cells, but it really isn't.
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:24.319
And then for me, being in this sector for over 20 years, it's bothersome and it sort of hurts the industry because everybody now has jumping on to try to sell this stuff, to try to tell you that it's gonna cure everything, yet it doesn't.
00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:25.920
It doesn't matter who you are.
00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:29.439
A ton of people, yeah, I've had stem cells, it didn't do anything for me.
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:30.319
Well, guess what?
00:06:30.399 --> 00:06:35.040
Maybe it didn't do anything for you because number one is it wasn't right the stem, the right the correct amount of stem cells.
00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:43.519
Number two, the protocol, the method of actually doing it, wasn't the correct method for that patient because every single every one of us here is different.
00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:48.560
Sometimes you just do a straight IV of maybe 100 million cells, then 200 million cells.
00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:58.319
The the protocol for an autoimmune disease patient is going to be completely different than the protocol for a longevity patient, then is gonna be probably different than the protocol for a pulmonary fibrosis patient.
00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:04.160
It's all different because it's individualized when it's done the correct way for that disease.
00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:06.800
So there's no one size fits all.
00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:08.639
There's no one size fits all.
00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:15.839
And there are no versions of real stem cells that get the clinical outcomes that some of us have seen the studies.
00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:18.319
I mean, there is real healing that comes through stem cells.
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:18.720
Yes.
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:27.920
The problem is in the US, once again, not getting the real stem cell, you cannot extrapolate that to mean I'm going to heal this process.
00:07:28.160 --> 00:07:30.800
But if they went out of country, then that is a real opportunity.
00:07:31.439 --> 00:07:32.800
So that's when they go to rehealth.
00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:33.600
Yes.
00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:36.480
So but the stem cells at rehealth are from where?
00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:38.879
They're from umbilical cord lining.
00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:42.639
It's a specific methodology that we published back in 2010.
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:44.000
We've actually, our U.S.
00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:47.279
entity licensed the technology to the people in Mexico.
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:52.639
And the stem cells in the United States, they're not from the placenta, or they're not from the umbilical cord, they're from the placenta, most likely, right?
00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:54.160
Well, the ones that it depends.
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:58.639
I've seen ones from amniotic, you know, they for instance amniotic fluid, you'll see that a lot out there now.
00:07:58.879 --> 00:07:58.959
Right.
00:07:59.199 --> 00:08:12.800
Essentially a mom has baby, they do an amniocentesis or they'll do a puncture, they'll obtain, you know, 100, 200 mls of fluid from there, and then they'll they'll basically filter this, freeze it immediately, and say, here's stem cells.
00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:13.360
Okay.
00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:17.759
When it's not stem cells, it's the percentage of stem cells is really, really low.
00:08:17.839 --> 00:08:20.319
In that fluid's going to be a bunch of antibodies.
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:30.160
There's going to be epithelial cells, other cell types in there because the amnion is also the same as the placenta, is loaded with filter cells, which are epithelial cells.
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:34.000
Let's let's get into the the miracle of the real stem cells that you have.
00:08:34.159 --> 00:08:35.360
What what what have you seen?
00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:43.679
What what what miracles have you seen from people or just great stories of people getting your stem cells from Cancun from ReHealth?
00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:44.559
And what's happened?
00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:45.679
Because I've heard stories.
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:46.639
Yeah, I haven't.
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:47.679
I mean, well, you've seen stories.
00:08:47.840 --> 00:08:47.919
Right.
00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:48.720
I've got to be a lot of people.
00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:51.360
You've seen them firsthand.
00:08:51.519 --> 00:08:57.200
Um, I don't call them miracles because they're sort of a transformation of a quality of life.
00:08:57.279 --> 00:09:02.320
You know, a miracle is somebody that couldn't walk that stands up and then starts walking.
00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:05.840
That'll never be the case of somebody in the context of a spinal cord injury.
00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:11.840
You know, but if you look at, for instance, that's my one of my specialty specialties of spinal cord injury.
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:17.120
If you look at the context of an individual that's in a wheelchair, they're really not looking to stand up and walk again.
00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:23.039
They're looking at their quality of life of how do I improve my bladder function, which is things that we take for granted on a daily basis.
00:09:23.279 --> 00:09:24.799
How do I improve, believe it or not?
00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:26.960
There was a survey done on over a thousand patients.
00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:28.720
How do I improve my sexual function?
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:32.240
Because that's out the door, you know, once you have a spinal cord injury.
00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:37.759
So they look at those two things as key, you know, dictators of improving their quality of life.
00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:48.399
That's what we see with the sort of the baby steps is I improve bladder function, I've improved, you know, basically sexual function.
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:51.360
Other ones that you guys have both seen before.
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:55.919
Patient comes in with an ejection fraction of 1920.
00:09:56.320 --> 00:10:01.679
And you're talking about somebody that's relatively exhausted, can't walk a block.
00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:06.960
Well, we had a case where we sent you a patient with an EF of 12 or ejection fraction of 12%.
00:10:07.600 --> 00:10:08.080
Can't wait.
00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:08.320
Yeah.
00:10:08.559 --> 00:10:10.720
And I remember the clinic telling me, no, Dr.
00:10:10.799 --> 00:10:13.360
Bordenko, you cannot send this patient down here.
00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:14.639
He's not stable enough.
00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:16.559
But wait, what is an ejection fracture?
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:24.559
An injection fraction is the amount of it's a percentage of the amount of blood that your heart pumps out with each beat.
00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:28.320
So to know what 12 means, you have to know what normal means.
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:30.480
So normal is around 60%.
00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:31.279
Okay.
00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:34.080
So 12 is pretty compromised.
00:10:34.320 --> 00:10:36.080
10 is transplant.
00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:36.639
Okay.
00:10:36.879 --> 00:10:37.600
So that gives you your skip.
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:41.120
Okay, so and then so the story you were talking about, the person he had a 12.
00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:42.159
So you had a 12.
00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:44.559
And he was denied transplant, yes.
00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:44.960
Yeah.
00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:47.440
So you've done uh treadmill tests, right?
00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:49.360
You've done a treadmill test with a couple of things.
00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:50.399
Oh treadmill tests, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:10:51.120 --> 00:10:53.440
So they probably told you, don't worry about it, you're perfectly fine.
00:10:53.519 --> 00:10:55.279
That means you're in that range that she talked about.
00:10:55.360 --> 00:10:55.919
You're in a 60 minutes.
00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:56.399
60%.
00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:56.960
Oh, yeah.
00:10:58.240 --> 00:10:59.360
I've done one before perfectly fine.
00:10:59.759 --> 00:11:01.200
12 minutes, 21, 12 minutes, something like that.
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:02.080
You get on the treadmill right.
00:11:02.159 --> 00:11:02.240
Okay.
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:04.799
So you so you're so you're perfectly fine.
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:11.120
So just imagine that being essentially a quarter of what it should actually be.
00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:27.120
Now there's not enough blood circulating in the body, hence a tremendous amount of lowering of oxygen, because ultimately oxygen is life in the body, you know, oxygenating the brain, oxygenating the limbs, the outer limbs, everything.
00:11:27.279 --> 00:11:29.360
So now you've depleted that significantly.
00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:33.759
So think of that individual that just getting up, right?
00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:35.679
Just getting up, they they're tired.
00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:36.879
Just walk into the bathroom.
00:11:37.039 --> 00:11:38.080
Yeah, just walk into the bathroom.
00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:38.559
They're tired.
00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:41.200
You'll see individuals that look pale, they don't look well.
00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:43.039
It's that type of individual.
00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:52.799
Now just imagine if you took that person and you've now improved his outcome by just we're talking about improving the outcome by about 20%, 30%.
00:11:53.279 --> 00:11:56.559
They are now into that case was actually went into, I think, 29.
00:11:56.879 --> 00:12:01.679
Um, we actually just looked at that case yesterday with cardiology, and he's at 30% right now.
00:12:02.639 --> 00:12:06.559
But this is now a person that probably I don't know who worked out in the gym today.
00:12:06.879 --> 00:12:07.279
I saw him.
00:12:08.080 --> 00:12:14.320
We I saw somebody else that that you know, his he loved playing golf, had to stop playing golf.
00:12:14.559 --> 00:12:29.759
This guy described having a hard time tying his shoelaces, like just doing that, and then all of a sudden went within days of having this done to being able to tie the shoelaces, to starting to pay, play a small amount of golf, and then building upon that.
00:12:29.919 --> 00:12:33.279
And we we describe building upon that, we describe things that you know Dr.
00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:36.879
Bordinko does is you know, let's make a little bit of a lifestyle.
00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:45.919
You're making a sacrifice in your health, make a sacrifice on yourself, invest in yourself, uh, eating right, exercising, all of that comes into play when you're doing this the right way.
00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:51.279
Yeah, you can't just get the stem cells and then go back to your the way you're living, you've got to take care of them.
00:12:51.600 --> 00:12:52.960
Take care of them, take care of yourself.
00:12:53.360 --> 00:13:00.799
What about uh the the average healthy person if they get this treatment at rehealth in Cancun?
00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:06.240
Like does it how how does it because we were talking about in injection fracture of a 12 or a 13.
00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:07.279
Somebody's sick.
00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:09.120
Yeah, what if you're at 60?
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:10.159
Yeah, what if you're normal?
00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:11.039
Yeah, what if you're normal?
00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:11.759
What if you're normal?
00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:26.720
So this is what we've seen in the context of, for instance, fighters, UFC guys, is those individuals describe number one, the majority of them come to you because of pain, joint issues, a lot of them, of course, back issues.
00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:28.480
What we're seeing is two things.
00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:32.320
What we know based on studies is what the cells do.
00:13:32.559 --> 00:13:37.919
The cells that we use, we know they can help control the inflammatory response.
00:13:38.080 --> 00:13:48.159
And it does this by changing your normal active pro-inflammatory response to what's called a regulatory response that regulates the immune system.
00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:50.960
So now we dampen the pro-inflammatory response.
00:13:51.120 --> 00:13:53.759
When you think of pain, you think of inflammation.
00:13:54.559 --> 00:14:00.159
So it's a natural response that transpires on any given day that has to transpire.
00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:12.240
The only way you heal is if that inflammatory response is elevated quickly, then you get what's called an anti-inflammatory response that comes in and does the healing.
00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:19.039
What happens to us as we get older, unfortunately, is we have a dampened immune response.
00:14:19.200 --> 00:14:28.000
It's a really dampened pro-inflammatory response that takes a really long time, and then you don't get the same type of healing response, that anti-inflammatory healing response.
00:14:28.080 --> 00:14:29.519
That's also dampened.
00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:33.360
Think of when you were a kid, when you know, we I think we've talked about this before.
00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:39.679
You fell down your skateboard, you started crying right away, you're in a ton of pain because you wiped out so bad.
00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:40.559
What happens?
00:14:40.639 --> 00:14:42.399
When's the last time you wiped out?
00:14:42.879 --> 00:14:44.559
On a skateboard, I can't exactly know.
00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:46.799
I can tell you a skateboard 10 years ago was terrible.
00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:49.039
I broke my wrist, it was terrible.
00:14:49.279 --> 00:15:05.279
But if but did you ever think of when it happened, you know, even though it was 10 years ago, when it happened, how much pain were you actually in versus when you were a kid and you fell down and you screamed and cried because the pain was exponentially higher?
00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:07.440
Probably more pain when I was a kid, right?
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:08.720
As an adult, it's less.
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:12.559
And it's because that inflammatory response is doled.
00:15:12.799 --> 00:15:27.200
That's another reason why, which we can talk about PRP after is the reason why PRP came into fruition is it causes a really strong pro-inflammatory response, platelet-rich plasma, and then hence it forces a really strong anti-inflammatory response.
00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:27.679
Okay.
00:15:27.919 --> 00:15:29.679
So you get a quicker healing response.
00:15:29.759 --> 00:15:29.840
Right.
00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:30.720
You know, with it.
00:15:30.799 --> 00:15:31.840
That's the concept behind it.
00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:35.679
So the cells that we use help control the inflammatory response.
00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:36.240
That's one.
00:15:36.480 --> 00:15:41.600
Two is we have evidence that it releases a specific growth factor that increases blood flow.
00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:47.679
There's probably nothing more important than that because when we discuss that, we talk about oxygenation to vital organs.
00:15:47.759 --> 00:15:52.159
There's a ton of studies that actually show, for instance, individuals that have peripheral arter disease.
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:58.080
It's essentially think of a stroke or a heart attack of a limb where there's an occlusion in an area.
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:09.919
And now normally the body's response would be to form what's called anastomosis or bridging, meaning new new trees, new, new, new vasculature grows around it to try to bridge that gap.
00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:13.360
When you use stem cells, there's evidence that you can bridge that gap.
00:16:13.440 --> 00:16:17.440
But what does that mean is essentially I'm causing more increased blood flow.
00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:25.279
For those of us that are worried about our heart, worried about heart conditions, worried about blockages, our brain, all of that, you need that.
